I wear a size 16 and 5'9" tall. I ordered the XL and it fits perfectly. It came wrinkled (polyester is bad about doing that) so I will attempt to get the wrinkles out with my steamer when it comes time to wear the jacket. I am so glad I bought it because it is very elegant looking and unique. It is a good choice for evenings out on the town and church functions.

I am so disappointed that this runs so small. Between size L and Xl, I ordered XL to be safe. Still too small. No way I can even button it, and it pulls badly across the shoulders. I'd estimate that the XL is equal to about a size 10-12, no more.
